Drawstring Bags, Stamps & Jute

Every year we participate in a wonderful Waldorf themed holiday stocking
stuffer swap with families all around the world and this year was no
exception! We made 10 sets of hand carved winter stamps full of acorns,
snowflakes, gingerbread men and snowmen to send in little handmade
muslin drawstring bags stamped with one of the stamps found inside each bag :)

They turned out even cuter than I had envisioned with their little jute drawstrings *grin*.

We finally got them all packaged up earlier this week and sent our box of goodies on their way down to the US and in a couple of weeks our box will make its way back to us full of new surprises :) In past years we have received beeswax candles & decorations, aprons with wood burned wooden spoons, playsilks in seasonal colors, gnomes, knitted animals and so many more wonderful things.

Are you participating in a seasonal swap? I would love to know what you are making :)

This set contains 3 Jute textures with size of 6x4in, resolution 300 and color profile assigned is Adobe RGB (1998). Use textures freely for personal and commercial use as and everything else posted on this blog in freebies section.

Hello from Canada! I am a homeschooling mom to 3 very rambunctious children ages 13, 8 & 5 years old while holding down the fort as tug boat captain 'Dad' sails the seven seas *grin*. We're located on 40 acres in a tiny rural community in beautiful British Columbia and this is my quirky journal about our homeschool journey, crafting, running my home based business 'RosyUndPosy' making 'Eco Friendly Bags 4 Green Living', and everyday life home on the farm. Hope you enjoy your visit :)
